1.
Use recommended size tractor. See Specifications section.
2.
Be sure tractor and machine have been properly prepared. See Preparing the Tractor and Preparing the Machine sections.
3.
Check seed rates carefully.
4.
Check tire pressure before seeding.
5.
Allow tractor hydraulic oil to warm up thoroughly prior to seeding. Cold oil will cause slower fan speeds.
6.
Run fan at recommended speed; excessive speed will cause increased wear on air system and damage seed.
7.
Always shut off fan motor by placing SCV in float.

8.
Whenever machine has been standing for an hour or more during period of high humidity or damp, rainy days, or after sitting overnight, run fan at recommended rpm, with machine stationary for 10 minutes.
9.
Use clean seed for best metering.
10.
After each day of operation, empty remaining product from tank and clean caked-on material from rollers. Open tank lids and remove any obstructions (rocks, twigs, sticks, straw, etc.) from meter inlet openings.
More frequent cleaning (possibly as often as every other tank fill) and use of lid screens is recommended when product contains a high level of debris (rocks, twigs, sticks, straw, etc.).
